" This place is alright but not my favorite. I've visited a couple of times, and each time the food quality seems to vary. Once the tikka masala was excellent, but on another visit, it felt a bit off with too much cream. The service is usually friendly, but sometimes it feels like they need more staff to accommodate dinner rushes. I would say it's a decent option but feel free to explore others first. " (*Curated Review*)

" Decent meals, but I wish there were more non-veg options on the menu. My friends and I ordered a mix of vegetarian and chicken dishes, and they were good but not great. The service was attentive. We'd give it another chance, but it might be better suited for vegetarian diners. " (*Curated Review*)

" One of my all-time favorites! I love the tandoori chicken and the friendly service. The prices fit my budget perfectly without compromising on quality. It is an overall wonderful dining experience every time I visit. Highly recommend the buffet on Sundays—great variety for the money! " (*Curated Review*)

" I don't usually review places, but I felt compelled to share my experience at Shalimar. The lamb curry was tender and packed with spices, although I was hoping for a bit more heat. The service was prompt and friendly, but I noticed it became quite packed as the dinner rush hit, which affected the service a bit. Overall, a solid choice for Indian food in Burlington, but I might call ahead during peak hours next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I didn't know what to expect, but the meal I had was absolutely superb. The lamb rogan josh was tender, and the spices were perfectly balanced. I recommend dining in for the best experience—the service tends to be stellar when you’re there in person. Prices are affordable, and the restaurant has a genuine and cozy feel to it. " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered takeout from Shalimar, and I can say they offered exceptional service during the process. My order was ready in no time, and the staff was pleasant. That being said, the food was a slight letdown; it was good but not as flavorful and inventive as I hoped. The portions were decent, so I'll consider making another attempt. " (*Curated Review*)

" Shalimar is simply amazing! Their chicken tikka masala is a must! I enjoyed every bite. The prices are decent, and what I loved most was how accommodating they were with my dietary restrictions. It’s a family-owned place that really cares about its customers. " (*Curated Review*)
